MISS WEBSTER, CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS MOMENTOUS DAY HAS FINALLY ARRIVED? IT’S JUST ME AND YOU, PRIX DE FONTEYN BABY!

this show was my entire personality in middle school

This was so big for me I can’t even explain it

he smells like christmas

nothing more iconic than this show

This review contains spoilers. Click here to see it anyway.

Sometimes teen shows just work. This is one of them. The characters seem alive and the story unfolds mostly naturally. A surprise enjoyable watch.

this show should be studied in hsc texts

no one can ever out horse girl tara webster. but they could probably out dance her

what can i even say. i was feeling like shit and decided to rewatch a childhood show just for fun and giggles (and comfort), but ended up being so emotionally invested and devastated over having to watch my favorite character die once again. like why can't i watch anything in a normal way ever... a

i'm really glad i had this show to watch when i was 11/12 when my dream was to be a ballerina even before watching it. it shows beautiful friendships and the different ways parents impact their kids for better or worse, explores different sexualities without judging, handles normal every day issues

everyone grew and matured a lot since the first season, i can't help myself but be proud. i understand there was no time to explore every storyline in detail but it annoys me that they mentioned kat's bulimia for only two episodes and left it there like she just recovered by one talk with tara. abig

characters wise, i loved abigail's development the most and also dena kaplan is just an excellent actress. i really didn't like the kat and christian pairing as it lacked chemistry and growth, and also they were obviously just using kat as a way for christian to make a parallel to how he feels with

I decided to revisit this show since I haven’t seen it since I was in middle school and it is a great show like I remember. I never finished it so I’m glad I got around to watching all of the series. I love all the characters and they hold such a special place in my heart.

finale had me in tears😐finally decided i am team christian/tara. i was so happy to see him decide what he finally wants to do, and love the constant tributes to sammy. overall one of my favorite shows in existence

this took me like 2 weeks coz i was on holiday but its the best background noise mwah

easily the best season

Wow definitiv die beste Staffel der Serie! Bin so happy, wie die Charaktere sich entwickelt haben (Abigail👑) und die Serie ist für eine Kinder und Jugendserie extrem Deep. Und über Sammy werd ich nie hinwegkommen 😭

so embarrassed that i rewatched this so quickly

this show made my entire personality when i was 14

It was a good introduction to the characters and nice to see where they started out but low key not that much happened wish they had more drama

Esta temporada tiene más drama, más romance, más baile, peor sobre todo tristeza. Es perfecta de principio a fin. 🥰🥰🥰

this season destroyed me as a kid and now

Changed lives for sure. Not sure when I finished this but I never rewatched🤷🏻‍♀️ Kat and Sammy were my favs, Tara was pretty annoying sometimes. Love love love
